My new endlicheri

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I’ll have to take some photos later. He put on a little thickness, doubt he’s put on any length yet. But he’s eating well. As soon as I toss broken up pellets in the tank, he swims out of his hide and comes right to the food. What a difference since the week I brought him home.

Sad update:
I check on the endlicheri this morning, and see his right pectoral fin is completely missing. I’m pretty sad about it. I know he’ll be fine without it in the long run, but I’m really bummed out that now he’s only got one fin :(

Oh no. Any suspects on who the culprit is? Who’s getting a time out in qt tank?

It will most likely grow back. Weird thats not a ropefish thing to do. More like an endli thing to do. Must have been flagtail?
 
I’d be surprised if it was the flagtail. He’s scared of everything lol. But I don’t know it could be. The reed fish is pretty big, I was thinking he mistook the fin for food and it popped right off. I don’t know, I need a camera on that tank lol.
Yeah I’m hoping it grows back. And hoping even more that it comes back full size or at least close enough.
 
Glad hes eating also add in some chopped tilapia. Cut up real small

He’s swimming a lot better now and still eating just fine. Since I couldn’t narrow down who the fin snatcher was, I left everyone in the tank. So far no other issues out of anyone!
